Poems on the roles of husband and father.

Dan Rosenberg’s third collection of poetry moves from loss into parenthood, exploring the roles of husband and father: their limits, their possibilities, and how they intersect with the wider world. Grounded in the familial, these poems wrestle with the political and the ecological, with heritage and hope, reimagining the breadth of home and what it means for one man to raise another to love it.

Bassinet invites readers to consider how personal relationships inform broader societal themes, offering a profound reflection on the intersection of personal and universal experiences.
